How out of reach are these 24 characters homes in reality?

How out of reach are these 24 characters homes in reality?

From the highs of Tony Stark and James Bond to the not-so-highs of Coronation Street’s Kevin Webster and Eastenders Mick, their homes reflect a lot on their lifestyle and how lavish they are living. 

Obviously, the more expensive looking the house the more idealistic it is to the likes of the viewers. Would you rather own a multi-million-pound mansion in the sunny state of LA or a pub in the East suburbs of London? To most, it’s not a hard choice. However, have you ever thought if these iconic TV and film characters can even afford the homes they live in? The results could surprise you.

Canstar have thankfully helped with that question. Thanks to them number crunching the data, they have created a tool designed to show you how much a character is earning in relation to their house mortgage, in order to see if they could afford it and for how long they’d need to live there in order to pay it off.
